Dave JonesDave Jones was full of praise for the Wednesday fans after Saturday’s last-gasp win over Carlisle.

Michail Antonio’s 95th minute winner sparked joyous celebrations around three sides of Hillsborough and Jones said: “I thought our supporters were absolutely magnificent today. The atmosphere they created was incredible, especially in those last six minutes of added time.

“They gave the players a lift, they gave the whole place a lift and we responded.”

Reflecting on the game, Jones felt we could have gone in 5-0 up at half-time and, looking towards the climax of the promotion battle,  he added: “All we can do is concentrate on what we do. We cannot effect anything that Sheffield United do … but it’s game on now.”
